Perhaps David Moyes decided to play the 'Sam Game' as he sent his side out against Bayer 04 Leverkusen yesterday, back in the day then manager Sam Allardyce responded to calls for using more youth players by sending out virtually an ENTIRE team of youth players for an FA Cup tie where Hammers were duly thrashed!
Did Moyes want to show the board his lack of options? Or does he really NOT have a clue? Moyes's fervent pursuit of Harry Maguire AND Scott McTominay has gone from the blind to the ridiculous, the only hope is that he can somehow be persuaded to only go for Scott McTominay.
At least Scott McTominay has age on his side, just about! Whereas Maguire is an 'accident waiting to happen' and the club will rue it's decision to back Moyes in his pursuit of the Manchester United has been. Perhaps that is it? Maguire and Moyes, Manchester's M&M are both 'has beens' who have essentially been booted out by the club, neither seem to understand 'modern' football as they bundle their way towards retirement.
Unfortunately Hammers are shackled with all the rumours about 'potential' targets that are flurrying around, so any serious business being attempted will NOW mostly be viewed as 'smoke and mirrors'. Big time football transfers are tricky business, the details of which are rarely in the public domain, so deals to bring in players like Edson Alvarez are usually conducted away from the prying eyes of 'so shall' media.
The Hammers 'circus' WILL keep rolling on until the last day of the transfer window, with many hoping that the 'Will' involved will be Will Self! The board should have pulled the plug on Moyes, paid him off handsomely and moved on, instead they are stuckm woth a man who has refused to move with the times, yesterday's game saw Moyes cut a disconsolate figure.....maybe now he might begin to realise what it is like to be a fan!
Scott McTominay at £40 Million is insane, at £30 Million just about acceptable, BUT paying ANYTHING AT ALL for Harry Maguire is totally unbalanced thinking, BOTH FROM AN ACCOUNTANCY POINT OF VIEW AND MORE IMPORTANTLY from pure common sense! - Ed

I'm not even going to bother
I'm not even going to bother speaking about Maguire. Who can't even go on holiday without getting his designer sliders in a twist the clown.
I've always seen Mctominay as a poor man's Soucek. Both tall and gangly, how long before fans say you can't play them both together.
Someone give Marrouane Fellaini a ring and bring back BFS. As after all, the football will be scintillating....
Mctominay as a poor man's Soucek.
